Dutch ovens may not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think about furnishing your kitchen with pots and pans, but buy one and you’ll quickly realize just how amazing of a product it is.

What we love about Dutch ovens is their versatility. Not only are they great for making stews and soups, but they do a wonderful job at browning, braising, baking, and deep-frying. You can use them in the oven and on the stove; some can also be used on a grill or over a fire.

We don’t want you to go another day without a Dutch oven in your repertoire of kitchen tools, so we created this great list of all our favorites. Scroll through and find one that’s right for you.
